Park Wedding Venues in Florida

I cannot say enough about this venue, Laura, and her team. Our wedding was the day after a hurricane. Every other wedding we knew of had been canceled or postponed. Laura and her team made our wedding happen, and we will never forget that. We had every little detail planned, including a beach ceremony we had arranged separately from the venue. The hurricane threw all of those plans out the window, and we ended up with only a quarter of our expected guests. Laura had her own home and another business to worry about, but she still checked the venue, confirmed it had power and water, and set up our tables and linens. Throughout all the uncertainty, Laura stayed in contact with my other vendors, continuously adjusted plans as things changed, and kept offering help she was never obligated or asked to provide. Every time another piece of our original plan fell through, she helped us figure out how to make it work. She took on so much beyond her role, all while dealing with the aftermath of the hurricane herself. When our ceremony had to move to the balcony, she and her team offered to put up an arch, used my extra florals to decorate it beautifully, and arranged the ceremony chairs. When our caterer canceled because of damage to his home, Laura had her pizza restaurant provide pizzas for our wedding. None of that was part of their “job.” They simply cared enough to help us have our day. The venue itself is breathtaking. Pictures truly do not do it justice. It feels intimate, and the views overlooking the pier, beach, and water are incredible. I had only done a virtual tour before booking, and Laura was so helpful with the layout, linens, and all the details leading up to the wedding. Our wedding looked very different from what we had planned, but we still got to get married in a beautiful place surrounded by people we love because this team went above and beyond for us. If there were a redo button, I would choose this venue again without hesitation - just without the hurricane!

Bud and Mary's Marina in Islamorada exceeded our expectations as a catering company, providing an unparalleled setting for a dream wedding. We have catered two weddings here in the last three months. From the moment we set foot on the property, we were enchanted by the breathtaking views and location that set the stage for an unforgettable event. The marina's picturesque backdrop and crystal-clear turquoise waters provided an atmosphere that elevated the wedding experience. The expansive event hangar allows for versatile setups, accommodating a range of guest counts and styles. The flexible options for ceremony locations, whether a sunset beach affair or an elegant elevated deck overlooking all the boats, showcase Bud and Mary's adaptability to various wedding visions. As a catering company, we at Miami Grill Catering appreciate venues that consider the needs of vendors, and Bud and Mary's Marina excelled in this regard. Bud and Mary's Marina stands out as a wedding venue in Islamorada. Its natural beauty and facilities create a harmonious environment that contributes to the success of any event. We are proud to have been a part of weddings hosted at this exceptional venue and eagerly look forward to future collaborations.

We had an amazing, beautiful, unforgettable, dream wedding thanks to Mermaid Beach Weddings in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Patty (owner, manager & officiant) & Ben (photographer) were absolutely amazing! 1000/10 recommend! Thank you for making our special day truly memorable!!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Celebration Gardens and their incredible team—Gisselle, Brian, and Christian! We worked with them for 2.5 years because we wanted to take our time planning, and they were patient, kind, and understanding every single step of the way. They explained absolutely everything, always responded quickly, and truly helped create our perfect wedding. From every random idea I had, they were able to bring it to life. The garden itself was stunningly beautiful, but it was the execution that blew us away. "Dancing on the clouds" was a huge priority for me, and it turned out so incredibly magical! Our guests had a blast—the mini-golf was played constantly, and the games, s'mores, and phone booth were massive hits. Because they have outstanding relationships with other vendors, the options they offer are truly endless (everything from dance lessons and magic shows to ice cream bars!). Planning a wedding can be stressful, but they made the financial part completely stress-free. There were zero surprise fees; every conversation and contract was 100% clear, so we knew exactly what the costs were. Their pricing is incredibly affordable, with packages and deals to fit absolutely any budget. If you want a team that is amazing, transparent, and dedicated to making your vision come to life, look no further!

This was an amazing wedding venue!!! communication was great. They were very easy to work with answered all of our questions in a timely manner. The bridal suite was great everyone enjoyed the space made it easy for a large group to get ready… the grounds were a big hit with family and friends. Everyone enjoyed walking them as they were available to everyone … we did a kind of laid-back Boho style wedding, in this place, complimented it well

Tides is a beautiful location. The coordinator is very casual and can sometimes be difficult to get ahold of, but he is there and on top of everything when it counts. I will say their recommended vendor list is not the best, but the venue itself has great food, sound system, and a view!
